体细胞高频突变

体细胞高频突变(英语:Somatic hypermutation,简称SHM)是脊椎动物免疫系统B细胞制造对抗原具高亲和力之抗体的一种机制,在B细胞于淋巴结生发中心进行亲合力成熟英语affinity maturation的过程中,透过激活诱导性胞苷脱氨酶(AID)与APOBEC3G等胞嘧啶脱氨酶诱导C脱氨U,进而启动碱基切除修复,由易误(error-prone)的DNA聚合酶η英语DNA polymerase eta完成修补而产生突变[1](也有观点认为C脱氨成U后可以mRNA逆转录的方式进行DNA修补而造成突变[2]),增加B细胞制造的抗体多样性,其中制造抗体对抗原亲和力最高的B细胞会被免疫系统选择,分化成浆细胞记忆B细胞,使个体终生对该抗原具免疫力。体细胞高频突变虽涉及DNA层级的改变,但并非生殖系突变,仅影响个别的B细胞而不会传给子代[3]。此机制的失控与B细胞淋巴瘤等多种癌症有关[4][5][6]

AID可催化C脱氨转为U
